Creating an auto-save feature for the TinyMCE editor was a lot easier than I thought it would be. This can be due to the ease of working with TinyMCE or the ease of working with jQuery (my javascript library of choice), or both. Here I'm going to explain how to create an auto-save and recovery feature with a MySQL database. Let's begin!

I was never really a Java fan before.  As a matter of fact I was never really a fan of any web programming that would run client-side (like Flash or Java).  Server-side programming is the way to go with coding like PHP and ASP.  When building a web site using Java or Flash you have to wonder if your client will have Java or Flash installed on their computer.  Because if they don't then they won't be able to see or use any of the Java or Flash on your site.  With server-side programming you don't have to worry about that.  They don't have to have PHP or ASP installed on their computers to see your PHP or ASP web site.  Makes more sense right.
